An odd tune -- and a favorite!

This is my rendition of "Le Talencourt," which I learned from Laura Sadowsky and Guy Bouchard in Val-Belair, near Quebec City, in the summer of 2002. To get the "full" tune, I need to be accompanying a fiddle or other instrument -- I'm substituting some notes on my one-row in D. (This is a typical one-row practice.) Also, my kids are playing (and sneezing, apparently) in the background. (This is a typical practice in my house.)
An old recording of the tune can be found on "Virtual Gramophone."
